Sainsbury's is one of the biggest supermarket chains in the world and has hundreds of stores around the United Kingdom. Some of the bigger towns have two Sainsbury's stores like my Hometown of Taunton in Somerset. There is one in the town centre and this one which is situated in a shopping complex on the outskirts of the Town.
This Sainsbury's store is situated in Heron Gate, Bathpool which is the name of the part of the complex. There are also a number of other big name stores around the area like Halfords, Currys, Comet, PC World, Staples, Office World, Homebase and B&Q plus another few.
These are the opening hours of the store.

And these are the opening hours of the garage.

The Stock
As any other Sainsbury's this supermarket stocks all the everyday items like Bread, Milk and all the other normal items you find in a normal supermarket nowadays.
But the main difference to any other normal supermarket is that there are many other items that they now stock, for instance there is a more extensive TV range than before. Mostly you see one or two Televisions on sale in supermarkets and they tend to be the cheap rubbish ones. Although not as good as the likes of TV's you can find at Currys and Comet you can see better TV's here than you could up until recently.
There is also an extensive clothes department like Asda's George stock. You can find some nice things here for both men and women and there is a small childrens section that is worth a look.
Generally the staff are very helpful and polite. I havent asked for anything myself because I am pretty good at knowing where the stock is but I have heard people asking about certain stock and hearing the staff give good information and service to the customer.
Here are some of the things that are at Sainsbury's at Heron Gate, Taunton.

This store is situated near the turn off for the motorway on the way to the M5. Follow out of town towards the Cinema and then turn right if you go straight on you will find Curry, Comet etc but turn left and you will find the Sainsburys car park,
MY USES
I often use this supermarket when I am going to the cinema just down the road because you can bring your own food and drink in to this cinema and it is far cheaper than the food in the cinema. As I don't drive I don't do my normal shop here because it is about a 3 mile round trip.
OVERALL
This is one of the best supermarkets I have been to and it has an extensive range of products that you won't find in smaller supermarkets. It has a huge size so there is obviously more room to fit stock. If you live around Taunton and havent been to this supermarket yet then pay a visit.
